Perhaps the only part of the story I wasn't massively keen on was the flying through the vortex part. The graphics weren't very good and it suddenly started to look like they had entered cartoon world or something. It also felt a tad on the cheesy side. The rest of it was grand, but I wasn't so keen on that part.

Yea I wasn't so keen on that bit, especially when they suddenly had the plane in there too. It didn't look very good.

It looked a bit silly, but more than anything else it didn't really make sense to me. I don't know if it wasn't properly explained or perhaps I am being a bit dim, but it all just seemed a bit bizarre.

I liked it in theory, but it didn't really work for me on screen. It just looked so fake. Not bad CGI fake, but just bad.

I think it was that Madge wanted to see him so bad, that she ended up wishing him there. Or something!

I hated this scene. For me it was worse than the breathing and speaking in space from the beginning of the episode.

I hated this. It looked really silly and didn't make any sense, and then to suddenly have the plane in there as well was just bizarre.

Another reason I really didn't like this episode.

I also don't understand how so many people are able to time travel nowadays. Obviously there are the Time Lords, but also the Tesselector and these tree people could suddenly fly into the vortex? I feel like I'm forgetting others too.

What's so special about the Time Lords if so many people can time travel?

And of course the Daleks have had time-travel since 1965.
